Fontodi, Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Sorbo Vintage:2018 This is very firmly constituted

This is very firmly constituted and a wine that should really not be touched for at least a decade

fresh and vibrant

A gentle application of wood sets off an earthy

with mostly consistent results though some bottles do seem more advanced than others

Delicious and quite long

Fontodi, Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Sorbo Vintage:2018 This is very firmly constitutedJust as it was last year, the 2016 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is magnificent. Dark, brooding and reticent, the 2016 is not ready to show all it's got. If anything, the 2016 is even more reticent than it was last year at this time. Vigna del Sorbo has a great track record for aging. I have no doubt the 2016 will blossom in bottle, but that is not going to happen anytime soon. Antonio Galloni
